Chapter 89: Earth Empire Ambush
Y/N's P.O.V
So, bringing Kuvira in to stop Guan didn't go to plan.
Instead of talking she attacked Guan, but Asami knocked her out.
Guan is also now a candidate for the Governor of Gaoling.
The other's and I are back on the airship with Kuvira in the cage Asami brought for her.
Kuvira starts to come to.
Kuvira: What... what happened?
She looks around before looking at us.
Kuvira: What am I doing in here?
Asami: Cooling off.
Korra: I locked you up so you don't try something stupid again.
Y/N: Yeah, like provoking an army.
Kuvira: And Commander Guan? Where is he now?
Y/N: Probably printing out some campaign posters. You were right about him being a good strategist.
Korra: Instead of conquering the states militarily, he's planning to take over politically.
Kuvira: Is that so?
Mako looks to Wu.
Mako: I say you call off the vote, at least for now. Make it impossible for him to win.
Wu: Mako, you know I love you, but I'm trying to encourage democracy. I can't just go around cancelling elections because I don't like one of the candidates. We need to let this play out.
Y/N: I never thought I'd say this, but Wu's right.
Asami: So, we just sit back and hope one of the other candidates wins?
Korra: I wouldn't hold my breath. They're not exactly what I'd call "inspiring."
Y/N: She's right. We might be screwed.
Kuvira: If you want to defeat Guan, you have to beat him at his own game. Find a candidate to run against him, someone popular enough to win.
Asami: That's actually not a bad idea.
Wu: But there's only one week to go until the election. Who are we gonna find on such short notice?
Korra's eyes widen.
Korra: I know the perfect person! Toph. She's a legend. Everyone loves her.
Y/N: That's a good idea, Korra. Plus, Gaoling is her hometown.
Korra: And we know that she hates the Earth Empire.
Y/N: It'd definitely bring a... unique governing style to the Earth Kingdom.
Wu: Sounds good to me.
Bolin steps forward.
Bolin: There's one little problem. Last time I saw Toph, she didn't seem too keen on getting involved with World affairs.
Korra: Then we'll just have to convince her.
(Twenty minutes later)
We're now outside the airship as Korra and Wu are going to see Toph.
Asami: I radioed Su and let her know we're bringing Kuvira to Zaofu for safekeeping until the election is over.
Y/N: She wasn't exactly happy about it though.
Korra: I figured she wouldn't be. But you don't have time to fly Kuvira back to Republic City.
The other's go back to the airship as I go over to Korra.
Y/N: I still don't like the idea of you going without me.
Korra: I know, but I'd feel alot better knowing you were here keeping the team together. And keeping an eye on Kuvira.
Y/N: Alright. If I don't hear from you in two days, I'm coming back to look for you.
She smiles.
Korra: Got it.
I hold her close and we kiss.
Korra: I love you, Y/N.
Y/N: Love you too, beautiful.
We go over to Naga and Korra gets on her.
I kneel down and pet her.
Y/N: Take care of 'em, Naga.
She licks my face.
After that I stand and look to Korra.
Y/N: Be careful.
Korra: I will.
She rides off on Naga with Prince Wu.
I then go back into the airship and join the other's.
When I get up there I see the other's talking.
Y/N: Hey, guys. We ready to go.
Mako: No. We have a problem, boss.
Y/N: What is it?
Bolin: There's a problem with the engines.
Y/N: Oh, great.
Asami: It's odd. They were working fine on the way here.
Kuvira: I think I might know why you're having engine trouble.
Asami: And how would you know that?
As they talk I feel something and I have a bad feeling.
Y/N: Guys, something's happening.
Mako: What do...?
Just then Earth Empire soldiers smash through the windows.
Kuvira: They're here!
I blast one with air before he can land down in the ship.
The other soldiers use Metalbending to attack us, so we dive out of the way.
Asami and I fight back-to-back.
Kuvira: Y/N, Asami, set me free!
Y/N: Not a chance!
Asami: We're not falling for that!
Kuvira: Quit being stubborn! I can help you.
As we fight metal cables wrap around us and they slam us all together.
After capturing us they surround us.
Asami: I have to hand it to you, Kuvira. Waiting to escape until after Korra left was a smart move.
Y/N: Yeah. And here's me thinking we had the easier job of getting you to Zaofu.
Kuvira: You fools, this wasn't my doing...
Just then the elevator opens and we see Commander Guan.
Kuvira: It was his.
He steps out with two soldier's either side of him.
Guan: Hello again, Kuvira.
This definitely isn't gonna end well.
